Game Review
On a near-perfect weekend for the Old Dark Navy Blues, we edged out Collingwood by six points in another thriller at Princes Park. Essendon and Melbourne both lost, and suddenly, Carlton was only two points behind second-placed South Melbourne. The finals were only a few weeks away, and the Blueboys were running into ominous form.
